Vinyl-wrapping the interior I am going to wrap the whole interior in black vinyl as a lot of people here did, and not just because it was painted by the previous owner and now it looks like the surface of a ****. Since this will be the first time I'll be doing something like this, I want to ask a couple of things before I do anything:
What is the best adhesive?
What is the best quality vinyl for n price? How well does it hold in your experience?
Good quality cushion layer to go between the panels and the vinyl?
What is the best way to avoid having wrinkles? I wouldn't want to do any sewing because I don't have a machine at my disposal.
Any other tips? I'll take anything I can get.

He has the nicest 4th gen interior I've ever seen.

Not sure where your located, Joann fabrics has some good vinyl choices, if not ebays has some good selections, just make sure you ask questions about stretch and backing. Dap weldwood contact cement in the blue can works well, had to order it though. Dap weldwood cc in the red can is at Lowes, still testing it's durability though.
This is the stuff you want. Tacks up in minutes and you usually only have to apply it to one side. Holds extremely well, even in high heat.
A great vinyl to use is by Spradling....their whisper line. Super soft, matte finish, great texture and easy to stretch.
